1986 Porsche 944 85 1/2 review from North America
"Best car I've owned in 25 years of driving"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Timing belts. Get ready for regular maintenance here, or don't buy the car.
Regular maintenance items.
Only hooked to a tow truck one time, and I told the mechanic before-hand to fix the problem - a wheel bearing froze.
General comments?
OMG.
Outstanding in every way - but maintenance will average about $200 per month.
